Emphasizing the relationship of human resource management to student learning, this book is driven by recent research, yet offers real applications throughout.
Many Human Resource Management books emphasize only the functions of the area. This text emphasizes how human resouce decisions affect student achievement. It also discusses human resource practice in schools with site-based management, addresses ISLLC standards, and shows practical applications for research related to human resource practice.

From the Back Cover
Human Resource Leadership for Effective Schools, 5/E
John T. Seyfarth
“I have used each edition since the very first one ... I consider this text the most comprehensive (and best overall) on the subject of HR in the field. Each chapter is very substantial in content, relevant, complete, and current.”
–Ernest Noack, Western New Mexico University
“Overall, the book is student-friendly, well written, and factually correct. The concepts covered are up-to-date and well organized .... The text closely aligns with the ELCC standards that are generally covered in the personnel course. The on-line resources for each chapter are a nice feature that the instructor can use to promote additional study by the students.”
–Michael Cunningham, Marshall University
Now in its fifth edition, Human Resource Leadership for Effective Schools emphasizes the relationship of school HR management to positive outcomes for student learning. This research-based text addresses the effects of human resource decisions on human achievement. Seyfarth also discusses ISLLC standards and the impact of HR practice in schools with site-based management, and presents practical applications throughout.
New features in this edition include:
· Coverage of key issues, such as mandated use of standardized tests for assessing school performance, applicants with disabilities, professional development programs, and mentoring.
· Discussion of the requirements of No Child Left Behind (NCLB) to employ highly qualified teachers in all classrooms and the implications of this mandate.
· Discussion of new standards for selecting and evaluating teachers (INTASC and PRAXIS III) and school leaders (ISLLC) in light of increased emphasis on accountability.
· Updated chapters on Legal Issues (Ch. 11) and Collective Bargaining (Ch. 12) reflect current issues such as constitutional protections for employees and sexual harassment in schools.
· Educational Leadership website contains additional resources: www.ablongman.com/edleadership

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
